Da'Vine's Boston Accent in The Holdovers w/Thom Jones

Accent Coach Bianca

She won an Oscar! Best Supporting Actress = Da'Vine Joy Randolph! She had to learn a Boston accent for the role. In this special podcast episode, I'm talking with Thom Jones, the dialect coach who worked with Da'Vine Joy Randolph for the movie The Holdovers. L's in unusual places, the American "brogue" and how to properly pronounce Da'Vine (I was doing it wrong!). It's a deeply interesting conversation. I'm sure you'll learn a lot from him.
